Searching the Warrick County jail roster

92 Indiana counties run their own jail rosters — Warrick County’s is accessible through the county’s public records search portal. The roster lists currently held inmates booked into the Boonville facility. When a common last name returns multiple results, use date of birth or middle name to narrow the match.

1. Go to the Warrick County records search.
2. Enter the person’s last name in the search field. A first name or partial name may help filter results.
3. If multiple entries share the same last name, compare date of birth or middle name against what you know to identify the correct record.
4. The result will show booking status, charges listed at intake, and facility location.

If the online search is unavailable, call the Warrick County Sheriff’s Office directly at (812) 897-1200 for a verbal custody check. Staff can confirm whether a named individual is currently in the Boonville jail.

What the roster does (and doesn’t) show

The Warrick County roster refreshes on a periodic basis — new bookings do not appear the moment processing is complete. A person booked late at night may not show on the online list until the next update cycle runs. If you need real-time confirmation, a phone call to the Sheriff’s Office is faster than the web roster.

The roster reflects only individuals currently held at the Warrick County jail in Boonville. It will not display juveniles, people held under seal, or anyone transferred to a state or federal facility. Charges shown are those recorded at intake and may not reflect later amendments by the prosecutor. Booking photos are generally public under Indiana law, but not every record will include one. For court case status — hearings, charges as filed, or case outcomes — use Indiana’s statewide MyCase portal, which covers Warrick County Circuit and Superior Court records.

If you’re reading this because someone was just booked tonight, the section below is for you.

If someone was just booked tonight

One number reaches the Warrick County jail around the clock: (812) 897-1200. That’s the Warrick County Sheriff’s Office main line. The line is staffed around the clock for custody questions — you don’t have to wait until morning to confirm someone is in custody. That’s the first call to make right now.

When you call, ask specifically whether the person has been booked and is currently in the Boonville facility. The officer on duty can confirm custody status. That part is the hard part — not knowing. A confirmed “yes, they’re here” at least gives you a starting point for the next steps.

Bond is set at a first appearance hearing, which typically happens within 24 to 72 hours of booking under Indiana procedure. Calling tonight will not get you a bond amount — that number doesn’t exist yet. What the call does is confirm timing: ask when the first appearance is scheduled so you know when to expect that information. It’s a long night, but the hearing date is the key fact to get.

Visitation is not available the night of booking. Warrick County jail visitation hours begin after the initial processing period. Call back the next day to ask about the current visitation schedule. Bonds can be posted directly at the jail or through a licensed bail bondsman authorized under Indiana law — the Warrick County Clerk of Courts can also help you locate licensed bondsmen in the county.

Morning actions: call the Warrick County Circuit Court at (812) 897-6140 for case filing information, and check MyCase for any case number already assigned. If you need an attorney, Indiana’s public defender locator is at Indiana Public Defender Council. That’s a manageable list for tomorrow morning.

If someone isn’t on the Warrick County roster

A missing name on the Warrick County roster most often means the booking record hasn’t pushed to the public-facing search yet. The roster update cycle creates a window — especially for late-night or early-morning bookings — where a person is in custody but not yet visible online. Call (812) 897-1200 to confirm custody directly before drawing conclusions from the roster.

• State transfer: If the person is serving a sentence or was transferred to a state facility, search the Indiana Department of Correction offender lookup at Indiana DOC Offender / Incarcerated Locator.
• Released: Bond may have been posted and the person released before the roster updated. Call the Sheriff’s Office to confirm.
• Neighboring county: An arrest by a municipal or state agency can sometimes result in booking at a different facility. Check adjacent county rosters — Gibson, Spencer, Vanderburgh, and Daviess counties all border Warrick.
• Federal custody: Federal charges route to a federal detention facility, which county rosters never display. Contact the U.S. Marshals Service for federal holds.
• ICE hold: Immigration detainers route outside the county jail system entirely. Use the ICE Detainee Locator at Odls to search by name and country of birth.
• VINELink: Register for automated custody-status notifications through Vinelink, which covers Warrick County and can alert you when status changes.
• Warrick County Community Corrections: Some individuals under court supervision are tracked through Warrick County Community Corrections rather than the jail roster.

If you can’t find them in Warrick County

A nationwide records search may help fill gaps that local portals often leave — particularly when someone could be held in another county’s jail, another state, or federal custody that Warrick County’s roster cannot display. This tool is a starting point, not a guarantee of completeness.

This tool is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and may not be used to screen anyone for employment, housing, credit, or any other purpose covered by that law.
